That makes zero sense.

I mean, it naturally has to be something that they eventually find a way to charge you something for. If it’s a for-profit business, and if they only sold lifetime subscriptions, they would eventually go out of business.

Yeah, absolutely. Same here, I find used laptops often make GREAT homelab systems, and ones with broken screens/mice/keyboards can be even better since you can get them CHEAP and still fully use them.

I have 4 doing various things including one acting as my “desktop” down in the homelab. But they’re between 4 and 14 years old and do a great job for what they’re used for.

Yeah, not here either. I’m now at a point where I keep wanting to replace my last host thats limited to 16GB. All the others - at least the ones I care about RAM on - all support 64GB or more now.

Borderland/Fallout crossover is episode 6. Vault Hunters get a surprise!

OMG it’s a Buster Keaton film too!!

I know what my wife and I are watching tonight.

Any guesses why that is?

It would be really nice if I could have it sync to both. I’d like to sync it locally and have all the features available, but for convenience I would also like the option of a secure, reputable cloud service that costs a reasonable fee.

They seem good. However, using the app seems to be either/or (local or their service)

They’re also twice the price of Google, which is a bit tough to swallow.

Better

Supposedly 29% of GenX have college degrees, and 39% OF millenials do.

Practically free is pretty relative. There were plenty of people in the 90s and 2000s crazily paying 30, 40, 50k a year. Or more. But not nearly as many.

It’s a botty name, but probably not.

Agreed, though GenX and Boomers aren’t eating any billionaires either. Which they should.

Why “wow”…?

They were generally working with very, very rough, incomplete, conflicting, or confusing info, yes.

It’s pretty astounding to me that this is even remotely as accurate as it is.

We are now.

What’d you want to talk about?

“India” did not mean then what it does now.

I really really want to find a good book or website showing the extended evolution of maps of the world or specific areas. This stuff fascinates me.

I’ve found a few minor ones over the years, but never a good one.

Which model Dell?

Buying few-year old enterprise gear can be a really cost-effective way to get a ton of power and expandability. But the noise, footprint, and power requirements seem pretty niche, even for homelab/selfhost people.

But I’m curious if you’re talking about a full-depth rack system like I’m assuming, or something else.

Personally, I switched to a handful of very small-footprint systems (mostly NUC/SFF PCs, and some laptops). And use cheap jbod enclosures when I need to add external storage.

Well then, I’m going to order twice as many cars from them next year as I did last year.
